Giethoorn and Zwoole (Canals and Churches)
Something you have to remember when traveling, is that if it could happen...it probably won't, unless you are me, or walking around with me; then, you never know, you may end up eat amazing Napoleon pizza followed by decadent Dutch hot chocolate in a rain storm on a canal and then get locked inside a church tower without lights only two hours later. Think it can't happen? Oh, I beg to differ, as do the three other girls who were with me during said rain storm and lock in. IxESN was better organized than ISOW, but they also were smart, the trip to Giethoorn and Zwolle was just that, a bus ride to one place and then to the other and home. No embellishments, no tour, just the bus, which makes things easier. If I'm traveling locally, especially a day trip, I normally pack a sandwhich for something for lunch and then just get a drink or snack, but on this trip I decided to eat with the girls I was traveling with after we walked around Giethoorn, which is this super adorable...
